Remote Human Resources Coordinator – Washington

Helping People Thrive—No Matter Where They Work

Think about the best work experiences you’ve had—the moments when someone made onboarding smooth, checked in about your well-being, or helped you cut through red tape. That’s the daily impact of this remote HR role. Here, you’ll help a distributed team stay connected, valued, and ready to do their best work—no matter the distance. If you love making processes more human and ensuring people feel supported (not just managed), this is your chance to turn empathy into real-world results from your home office.

Why You Matter in This Role

HR isn’t about paperwork here—it’s about creating a place where people want to show up. Your energy shapes the first day, the tough conversations, and the small moments that make a team feel like a team. You’ll be the person who:

  • 🎯 Makes onboarding personal and easy, so every new teammate starts with confidence
  • 🤝 Helps employees and leaders truly listen to each other (and turn talk into action)
  • 💡 Adds warmth and clarity to every message, whether on Slack, Zoom, or in an email

When someone feels lost, you’ll help them find answers. When they feel stuck, you’ll help them move forward. That’s what real HR impact looks like.

How You’ll Change the Workday

Your days will be full of variety, but the common thread is making things easier, clearer, and more human for everyone. Here’s what that looks like:

Onboarding & Offboarding

  • 🚀 Map out onboarding plans that help new hires hit the ground running (even from afar)
  • 📋 Sync up with managers to create welcome schedules and set clear first-week expectations
  • 🔑 Handle departures with care—collecting feedback, sharing next steps, and leaving a positive final impression

Employee Support & Engagement

  • 🌟 Respond to employee questions—quickly, thoughtfully, and with practical solutions (benefits, pay, policies, you name it)
  • 🤗 Drive well-being and engagement projects, keeping remote culture lively and supportive
  • 📊 Use surveys and conversations to spot trends, address small issues early, and boost satisfaction

HR Operations

  • 🗂️ Keep digital personnel records organized, private, and up-to-date
  • 📆 Manage time-off and leave requests using modern HR tools—no lost emails, no confusion
  • 📈 Share meaningful HR metrics with leaders to guide better decisions

Process Improvement

  • 🛠️ Notice what’s clunky, repetitive, or unclear in HR processes—and fix it
  • 📑 Write clear process docs, so teammates always know what to expect
  • 🔄 Connect across departments to align on best practices

How You’ll Thrive Remotely

Remote work isn’t always easy, but here it’s built for trust, flexibility, and growth. You’ll fit right in if you:

  • Take initiative and enjoy figuring things out on your own (with backup when you need it)
  • Can translate HR-speak into plain English for everyone
  • Enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds, time zones, and perspectives
  • Stay organized even when everything’s changing fast

You’ll use Slack, Zoom, and cloud-based HR systems daily, and partner with managers, payroll, and other teams to keep everything running smoothly.

What Makes You a Great Fit

Bring your quirks, strengths, and all the HR know-how you’ve picked up. Here’s what will help you shine:

  • 🧩 Past experience in HR, people operations, or a related admin role (bonus if it was remote)
  • 📝 Comfort with digital HR tools like BambooHR, Gusto, or something similar
  • 🎙️ Ability to turn confusing policies into clear guidance, whether in a DM or an all-hands note
  • 📚 Attention to detail, from compliance to calendars to process docs
  • 🤲 Trustworthiness and a natural sense of empathy—people share things with you because you listen
  • 💬 A plus: knowledge of payroll, basic employment law, or running engagement surveys

What Success Feels Like

You’ll know you’re crushing it when:

  • New hires mention how easy and welcoming their first week was
  • Employees feel at ease reaching out to you (and get help quickly)
  • Projects finish on time, with everyone in the loop and on board
  • You fix people's problems before they become big distractions
  • Team engagement and retention numbers keep trending up

How You’ll Grow and Be Rewarded

This isn’t just a stepping stone—it’s a springboard. Here, you’ll:

  • Build real relationships with leaders who value your input and ideas
  • Learn the best of remote HR tech and modern people ops
  • See your efforts shape team culture, day by day
  • Celebrate the wins as the team grows happier and more effective

The annual pay for this opportunity is $57,000—a reflection of the value placed on caring, people-first HR. Expect flexible hours, real development opportunities, and a team that genuinely supports each other, wherever they are.
